Mashcka [7]

Use substitution
x -4x - 7 = 2
-3x = 9, x = -3
Y = -4(-3) - 7
Y = 12 - 7, y = 5
Solution: x = -3, y = 5

A triangular pyramid and its net are shown. Rain uses Calculations below to conclude that the surface area of a triangular pyram

Harman [31]

Answer:

Rain is correct, calculates correctly, 238.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangular pyramid is shown with the dimensions.

The surface area of the triangular pyramid is given by :

$A=\frac{1}{2}\left(a \times b\right) + 3\left(\frac{1}{2}\times b\times s\right)$

$A=\frac{1}{2}\left(10 \times 8.7\right) + 3\left(\frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 13\right)$

$A=43.5+(3\times 65)$

$A=43.5+195$

$A=238.5 \ \text{inche}^2$

Therefore, the surface area of the triangular pyramid is = 238.5 square inches.

4x - 3y + 20 = 0....4x - 3y = -21

4x - 3y = -21.....multiply by -2
5x - 6y = -25
----------------
-8x + 6y = 42 (result of multiplying by -2)
5x - 6y = -25
---------------add
-3x = 17
x = -17/3

this system of equations has 1 solution
